Lice

When my brother got back for camp we realized we all had lice! It is hard for my dad to check my brothers hair because it is so long so we had to shave it!!!! It is the messiest hair cut I've ever seen because Robb HATES getting his hair cut, we had to wrestle him to the floor to cut his hair! We think it is because some kids feel like their hair is a part of them so it's kind of like cutting of a limb. Here is a pic of his new hairdo:

August 2013's what autism has come to!

 Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while, but Robb has been away at camp so there isn't much to post.
 This is an article about research they have done that shows how kids with autism seem to have better math skills than nonautistic kids. Super interesting!!!!!!

Questions

I have told you about Robb and about autism and down-syndrome now I want to hear your questions, facts, and what I could do to improve roobslife13.com. Put a comment it and you will get a response!

Camp Green Top

Some people think that if you have special needs you can't go to sleepaway camp. I used to be one of those people. Then my family found camp Green Top. Camp green top was started by President Roosevelt for kids who had polio. Now it is opened to all kids with special needs! And my family (including Robb) loved it! They said they would sleep infront of the cabin door if Robb would try to get out and give Robb the many medicine's he needs at night. It was more than my family could hope for and when ever we go to pick Robb up we have to pry him to the car with potato chips! Go to http://www.leagueforpeople.org/campgreentop for more info!
